Chapter 139: The Stone and the Wind - First Part
”'Don't attack Don't dodge Violation of these rules will result in death' Funny, right?” asked Vata ”If you don't dodge the attacks, the slimes kill you anyway How does that h without attacking or dodging?”
”Yes, tooor dodging”
”And?”
”They still died It seeh the slimes and enter Stone Forest, there is be a boss-levelinside”
Sila was positive that the one inside must be Master Viola and drank a Fountain of Life
”Sila, what are you doing? Why did you drink the potion for no reason?”
”I have a reason I used upthe journey and want to play it safe It's likely that danger awaits hout his body The rules banned hi qi Even though Master Viola's trial would focus on hisCosmos, Sila intended to use qi to support his actions
”Let's go There is only a kilometer left until we reach Stone Forest”
”That's not it, Sila Don't you reht? The territory of Stone Forest has expanded We only have five hundred meters left”
”I see Anyway, I will take the lead Please follow o slowly? If we hurry up, we can arrive at Stone Forest within just a ht regard walking in a hurry as dodging Trustsloill be safer for us”
Vata didn't ask him who the 'certain someone' was and listened to what he said She followed Sila from a short distance away because Sila had told her that he didn't want her to be hit by stray bullets More i him a hand no matter what happened
Both people slowly took stepped forward As his foot was about to step past the border, Sila activated Galaxy Eclipse to enhance his detection ability
”There are a lot of sli for us in Stone Forest, our destination,” said Sila
Whoosh--!
A red slime hopped out from a bush to attack hi Looking closely, he could tell that its red color didn't come from its body but rather a thin layer of aura around it
”As I thought,” muttered Sila He was one hundred percent certain at thisin a trial Viola especially designed for hih he was also a sli fire through Orbiting Cosht hand and used the back of his hand to push the sli-Claws caused the sround next to hi is one type of receiving an attack, so it's neither attacking nor dodging,” Sila explained
”Huhu Sila, are you having a conversation with it?” Vata hed
In fact, it actually understood Sila's words with his Way of Slime skill that had developed fro Coser attacked
Vata looked at it and gaped ”Really? Are you able to converse with it?”
”It's more accurate to say that we can understand each other without words We are both fighters, no words are necessary between us Just one exchange can tell a thousand words, right, little sli withoutVata's shocked expression Well, she was shocked at first, but when the sa happened five times, she lost her interest Every slime had acted the same toward Sila They attacked hio In the end, she opened her systeame community out of boredom
The first phase of attacks was quite easy At most, the slimes would just attack difficult places to defend such as his back, ankles, shoulders, or head However, as long as they came at hi Coson Qi and Formless Soldier were all he had used to receive the attacks
The level of difficulty rose once he had advanced two hundred meters from the border The frequency of the attacks increased and they were fiercer In the end, just qi was no longer enough Sila had to resort to Orbiting Cosmos to block the attacks
Still, the slierous Three sliht ankle simultaneously Usually, he would choose to move his head away to evade the attack, but he was currently banned fro so
There were three different elements imbued in his body He blocked the attack at his flank with his right hand while slightlyof the attack so it happened at the saainst his ankle
Sila exhaled to relax his body while it was rotating in rate techniques to lessen the power behind both attacks without directly resisting the i on the sah
'The power behind the attacks were still there It see-Claws is really hard for me to learn If it was Kawin instead, he wouldn't have received any dah, if Kawin really were to take his place, he wouldn't perform such acrobatic actions like Sila, since the Six Moon-Grabbing-Claws book clearly stated that both feet round
Well, Sila didn't care He intended to develop his own version of Six Moon-Grabbing-Claws TheCloud dojo was to not stick to the for while huaze from her syste it back and continued surfing as she predicted that there would be a lot of instances like this
And she couldn't be more correct Afterward, the attacks continued to co more powerful Sometimes Sila turned his body and sometimes he did a somersault Sometimes he lifted his knee to block and sometimes he stepped forward to receive the attack Both his hands and his feet weredifferentfroic power upon contact with the slime and a lot of bruises could be spotted
Vata was very close to lending her hand to help him, but she stopped when she saw Sila's eyes, full of determination
Four hundred meters was a short distance for both of them, but they had spent almost two hours to travel that far The attacks stopped for a while, so Vata insisted Sila take a short break
